Google heatonpark Coachworks. They're off chillingham rd, not the cheapest but did a top notch job on my roof that had been dented and needed respraying.

Yes that does sound cheap £150!
Would have said more like £300-£400 with a repair.

Yeah, unsure if it was just a post count bump or a genuine estimate! I don't mean to offend Felix!

150 to repair and respray a whole roof ?
absolutely no chance, I have been in the trade for zero minutes but common sense tells you that's impossible
350 minimum
